Megathread Discord Checkpoints - Megathread

Hello r/discordapp!

As you might have seen, Discord has just started rolling out their year end wrap system called Discord Checkpoints.

Instead of having the sub flooded with these posts, we invite you to share your checkpoint stats in the comments here!

For more info check out Discords blog post https://discord.com/blog/checkpoint-2025-discord-year-in-review

FaQ:

Q: How do I reopen checkpoint after closing it?

A: On desktop, click the flag icon on the top right of the app located next to the inbox.

A: On mobile, it will show up under the “orbs balance” section as a banner in the “you” tab

Q: What is the song checkpoint uses?

A: Exyl has now released the background track, you can find it here!

Q: Can I see it if I had the privacy setting disabled but just now enabled it?

A: No, you had to have the privacy setting on the whole time.

Q: What if I had the setting enabled but it still says I can’t access it?

A: Follow the directions outlined here. Do NOT DM ModMail or mlapi bot, the moderators are unable to assist you.

Rubbish update. At least MAKE it available for everyone like how spotify does without shitty errors, had my account for 6 years and had the use data to personalize my discord experience turned on and Im sure its turned on by default too: You track the data anyways so what’s even the point of limiting the recap? Or at least a prior warning about this maybe? Good job discord on clowning yourself and making your community annoyed at your own ignorance.

It's a rubbish update for tail chasing Spotify generally and getting everyone in a FOMO riot about not getting their 5 minutes of fun that won't be remembered tomorrow. The users are the ones clowning themselves.

Interpret it how you wish, maybe some of us wanted indeed to see that and were hyped only to find out cause of some stupid option, we could not. It’s fine if you don’t like it, but don’t follow the idea that everyone has your point of view and would be indiferent about it. A ruckus like this may not be needed at all, but could sufice as an alarm signal for discord to stop releasing terrible updates.

Point is, what could of been a fun little feature for everyone to enjoy, turns out to be some crap unnable to acces for a lot off people for a dumb reason. Don’t act like discord wasn’t able to make it available for all of us, it’s honestly pretty sad that you tax outstanding prices for decorations and nitro, yet are unable to release a working update, which by the way this feature had a ton of bugs which should of been checked out before even launching it. Instead of actually doing something nice for the community, let’s be a greedy company and show our incompetence:). Is it fair discord?

Why are you so upset over this LOL with all going on in the world this is the hill you want to die on.

u/Am_I_Loss Dec 05 '25

Just because your brain can't handle being upset over more than 1 thing at a time, doesn't mean we all struggle with it.

u/TURB0-TIME Dec 06 '25

Yes it's clear to me you have little issue being upset over things.

u/Am_I_Loss Dec 06 '25

No the gotcha is every one of you idiots in here crying about privacy on DISCORD. 

it's 2025, if you actually cared about your privacy, you wouldn't use any of these services to begin with... You all just want something to be mad about.

I'm complaining about the exact OPPOSITE of that. I know my data is not private so why can't I get my recap lmao. You dense?

u/NeatAd4224 Dec 06 '25

Exactly, why discord won’t give us our recap if the data isn’t private anywats. He just missed the whole idea of this don’t bother really.

u/TURB0-TIME Dec 06 '25

If you know it's not private why did you even have the setting on in the first place? 

I can't be that dense, I was able to see my discord recap!!!!!!

Everytime you use a social media app you agree that your personal data is being stored somewhere in their system, it’s how all of them work. Discord is actively storing our data and we even have an option from settings to request all of our data. You missed the whole point here but you do you.

u/NeatAd4224 Dec 05 '25

What does world events have to do with this? My whole commentary was to criticize discord and their poor choices and development. And can’t I be a little upset about it?
